Just for gits-and-shiggles I decided to try out the 2005.1 release on my Ultra 2E this weekend. I think I had 2005.0 on it but I could be mistaken.

I'm happy to report that I encountered not a single snag in the process. Using the minimal CD and a stage 3 install went fairly quick. Everything went smoothly from partitioning the disk to having Fluxbox up and running.
